Best company cars £25,000 to £30,000

These are the best company cars for between £25,000 to £30,000

It’s no secret that plenty of cars are going up in price, but while the choice may be a little bit slimmer than it used to, you still don’t need to search too far to find some great company cars on a smaller budget. In fact, we’ve made the hunt even easier by rounding up the best company cars for £25,000 to £30,000.

The best company cars for £25,000 to £30,000

Read on to find our favourite company cars that you can buy for £25,000 to £30,000.

BYD Dolphin

  • Variant: Dolphin Boost 44.9kWh 
  • Price: £27,195
  • Powertrain: 44.9kWh battery, 1x e-motor
  • CO2/BiK band: 0g/km/3%
  • 0-62mph/top speed: 8.0 seconds/99mph

There are plenty of electric superminis available these days, but the BYD Dolphin scores slightly higher on practicality because it’s a little bigger than most of its rivals. And when you factor in its zero-emissions, pure-electric powertrain, and the resulting tax benefits, the Chinese model starts to have proper appeal.

Boost spec brings a heat pump, a large 12.8-inch (rotatable) touchscreen infotainment system, a 360-degree parking camera with rear sensors, plus heated front seats. It’ll do nearly 200 miles on a single charge, too, and costs less than £20 per month in tax for basic-rate taxpayers, or around £27 a month for those in the 40 per cent bracket.

MG4

  • Variant: MG4 SE Long Range 150kW 64kWh
  • Price: £29,495
  • Powertrain: 64kWh battery, 1x e-motor
  • CO2/BiK band: 0g/km/3%
  • 0-60mph/top speed: 7.7 seconds/100mph

Firmly established as a star offering to private buyers and company-car choosers alike, the MG4 is good to drive, roomy and generally well equipped, even in the more modest SE trim. It doesn’t get a heat pump, admittedly, and charging isn’t as quick as on some rivals, but the chunky 64kWh battery delivers well over 200 miles of range in the real world.

It’s quick enough, too, thanks to the 201bhp rear-mounted motor – and the surprising thing is that the MG4 handles pretty sweetly, too. When you consider that lower-rate taxpayers can have this car for only about £15 per month, it’s frankly ludicrous value.

Renault 5 E-Tech

  • Variant: 5 E-Tech 150hp Techno
  • Price: £26,995
  • Powertrain: 52kWh battery, 1x e-motor
  • CO2/BiK band: 0g/km/3%
  • 0-60mph/top speed: 7.9 seconds/93mph

You can actually get the new Renault 5 E-Tech for less than £25k, but we’d say it’s worth choosing the £26,995 150PS Techno model from your company car list, because this higher-power variant is tied to a larger 52kWh battery pack, which in turn delivers a claimed 248-mile range; the basic model’s 40kWh pack gets you a still-decent 193 miles. All Renault 5s look absolutely fantastic, though, and they drive well too, with a grown-up feel, a well controlled ride, and just a hint of fun in the corners. The Google-based infotainment works well, and while rear-seat space is a bit tight, up front the 5 looks and feels great, and there’s a decently sized boot too.

Vauxhall Corsa Electric

  • Variant: Corsa Electric 115kW Design
  • Price: £29,715
  • Powertrain: 51kWh battery, 1x e-motor
  • CO2/BiK band: 0g/km/3%
  • 0-60mph/top speed: 8.2 seconds/93mph

The Vauxhall Corsa Electric is a good example of getting the basics right. Electric cars don’t necessarily need to be flash or hi-tech – sometimes, just a well thought-out electric version of an already sensible and accomplished supermini will do. The arrival of the Renault 5 E-Tech has made the Corsa look a bit expensive (it actually starts at a little over £30k, although deals such as this are widespread for private buyers, and your fleet manager will surely be saving even more), but peppy performance and a 221-mile range from even the cheapest electric Corsa is still competitive for this class.
